As we commence World Continence Week 2021 (21-27 June) I thought I would inform the community of a great initiative - Bins4Blokes. BINS4Blokes is an Australia-wide awareness and advocacy campaign promoting the installation of incontinence bins in male public toilet facilities.

Help is available:

For a free confidential chat about your concerns with incontinence or a chat about your prostate cancer experience - Call our Prostate Cancer Specialist Telenurse service on 1800 22 00 99 (Mon-Fri 9-5 pm AEDT or Wed 9-10 pm)
